Hmmm, I currently store mine in these, but wrap the watch head in a layer of bubble wrap. I guess this would prevent the PVC from screwing with anything, but now I'm wondering if I need to add some rice or desiccant...
how is desiccant going to help?
It keeps the rice dry.
Is that a DIY case or you can actually buy it? That looks super good.
Folks
Dessicant will only absorb water. It will not absorb any outgases or plasticiser leaching from these plastic bags.
Medicinal quality hdpe ( high density polyethylene) will also contain oils carried over from the manufacturing process - these oils will be either medicinal white oils ( 80-130 ppm generally in the finished hdpe product) or PAG ( poly alkylene glycol based - generally 20-50 ppm carried over into the finished product)
Other additves - ie antioxidants, plasticisers etc may also be added to almost all plastics we come across in our daily lives
So, i would not store watches in plastic bags (of any sort), for a long period of time
